Product Characteristics

• Flavour Profile: Brewtec Classic Dark Ale features a full malt beer with a rich, velvety finish, thanks to a blend of high-quality dark and light roasted malts.

Ingredients and Production

• Malted Barley: Utilises quality two-row malted barley for a robust base.
• Nelson Hops: Includes hops grown in New Zealand, known for their distinctive and aromatic qualities.
• Dark Malts: Contains dark malts such as chocolate malt to enhance the ale’s complexity and depth.

Brewing Process

• Sugar Options:
  • Use Brewtec liquid brewing sugar or a blended sugar mix for a fuller flavour.
  • Alternatively, replace sugar with malt extract for a richer malty taste.
• Fermentation:
  • Dark malts have a lower fermentation rate compared to lighter malts. If using 1 kg of high-fermentation sugar (like dextrose or cane sugar), aim for an end Specific Gravity (SG) of around 1010. (SG measures the density of the beer compared to water, indicating how much sugar has been fermented into alcohol.)
  • Using sugars with lower fermentability (like malt extract) will result in a higher end SG.

• Bottling:
  • Store the beer in a warm place (18-28°C) for 7-10 days to develop carbonation. After this period, move the bottles to a cool, dry place for conditioning.
  • It’s normal for the beer to be slightly flat after one week; additional time is needed for full carbonation and flavour development.

Yield and Packaging

• Yield: Each 1.7 kg kit produces 23 litres of dark ale.
• Packaging: Available in convenient 1.7 kg cans.
